Rain isn't expected in the next 30 minutes but it will take a while for the track to dry

All the cars return to the pits.

Trulli went wide but recovered.

The 2 Ferrari drivers haven't gone out and neither did Barrichello

Even though it isn't raining, the track is very damp and visibility behind other cars is very poor
